MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Business review

The Company had a fleet of five aircraft at the start of the fiscal, which was scaled up to 11 aircraft by thefiscal end. All the six new aircraft acquired are the new generation Boeing 737 – 800. The airline carried over2.61 million guests during June 2006 to March 2007, and enjoyed a market share of over 8%. The ethos of theCompany is to offer lowest air fares to its guests and provide safe, reliable and quality service of flying thembetween two points.

SpiceJet currently operates 83 flights daily to 14 destinations, offering connectivity between metros and non-metros. The Company boasts of Flight Dispatch Reliability of 99.5% which is higher than the Boeing globalaverage.

Strengths

Following a typical Low Cost Carrier (LCC) business model, on the lines of the most successful LCCs globally,SpiceJet boasts of having the lowest cost per unit amongst Indian LCCs. This has been achieved by maintaininga standard aircraft type (B737 – 800) with identical seat configuration in a single cabin, engines and othermaintenance equipment. Hence commonality of aircraft spares and training for crew and engineers alsosubstantially contributes to reduced costs. It is this cost advantage that we pass on to our customers for themto avail of our consistent and year round low fares.

SpiceJet has partnered some of the best names globally like Honeywell, Weber Seats, etc. All this ensures animpeccably well maintained fleet which therefore results in highest safety standards, besides an on-timeperformance record which is amongst the best in the Indian skies.

SpiceJet has invested heavily into IT towards delivering best in class service levels to its customers andpartners, as also providing the Management with MIS and other inputs, which in turn facilitate to deliver thebest end product/ service. For our Reservations, Call centre and Departure Control System we subscribe to thestate-of-the-art Navitaire system, used by most successful LCCs globally.

Our aircraft utilization is amongst the highest in India, while the turn-around time at airports is the lowest. Thisdelivers efficiencies resulting in excellent asset management.

Competition and Threats

There are three major threats to the entire aviation industry in India; a) Much higher capacity than demand; b)Fuel prices, and c) Airport infrastructure.

Currently there are eight scheduled airlines in the domestic market in India, four of which are LCCs includingSpiceJet. The full service carriers are also competing on low fares with the LCCs since the demand-supplyimbalance is getting worse every month.

Most airlines are operating below cost, and hence their financial results - which are in the red. This in turn putsmore pressure on yields, thereby causing all airlines to lower fares beyond the threshold levels.

Yet another area of concern is the infrastructural constraints at major airports. There are practically no slots (forlanding/take-off of aircraft) available at these airports for any new services to be launched. Hence the connectivityto these airports suffer, besides inconveniencing our aircraft rotations.

For existing services there is terrible traffic congestion leading to increased fuel spend and an increased andwasteful aircraft utilization.

23rd Annual Report 2006-200715

Page 18: Annual Report 2006-07

Opportunity and Outlook

With domestic air travel having grown 42% over the last one year, which is the highest recorded anywhere in theworld, the forecast for air travel in India is robust – likely to grow 25% year-on-year for the next 3 years. Thistherefore means excellent demand, which has been induced primarily by low cost airlines enticing train travellers tofly at similar fares. However, the supply of air capacity is exceeding demand. The total increase in domesticcapacity being added every month is 3.5 aircraft until end of 2007; thus exceeding demand by 10%. The economiccycle in such a scenario typically drives towards consolidation in any industry – something India has recentlywitnessed by way of merger of two private full service carriers and also two state owned full service carriers. Whilethese are positive indicators of a maturing industry, more must happen for all existing players to remain profitable inthe long run.

Spicejet, having a fundamentally sound business model, is heading towards a break-even during Quarter 1 of2007-08 financial year – the 1st by any new entrant in India. SpiceJet will add 8 brand new aircraft to its fleet of11 by March 2008. These will include five B737-900ER aircraft with a seat capacity of 212. This aircraft will bethe largest capacity aircraft in the Indian domestic skies. The next rounds of confirmed aircraft acquisitions willhappen during April 2008 thru March 2011, by when the total fleet strength will stand at 35 aircraft, with anoption of 10 more.

The fact that this kind of expansion has been planned, despite the current competitive environment in India, asoutlined above, only goes to prove the absolute control on costs and best management practices that SpiceJetfollows.

Human Resources

This has been a year where the challenges of recruiting large number of frontline operation staff were met on time,with the coming of several new aircraft. This was achieved despite the demand for such Talents having spiked quitesuddenly and the resultant shortage. The Company today has 1850 employees.

The industry was witness to attrition across companies and across levels of more than 30% where SpiceJet wasable to maintain a level of attrition of about 19% across levels, for the full year. It was also a year of consolidationfor the Company where several processes alongwith certain parts of Organisation and Compensation structureswere reviewed and streamlined keeping in mind long term sustainability and rigour. Employee events around EmployeeEngagement and communication initiatives were intensified and Organisation-wide initiative carried out for aligningOrganisation Vision and bringing about a performance focus. During this period an introduction was done to VariablePay in the pay structure of certain functions, as a first step to eventually introducing it across the Company.

AUDITORS’ REPORT

TO THE MEMBERS OF SPICEJET LIMITED

1. We have audited the attached Balance Sheet of SpiceJet Limited, (the ‘Company’) as at March 31, 2007, andalso the Profit and Loss Account and Cash Flow Statement for the 10 month period ended on that date annexedthereto. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is toexpress an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

2. We conducted our audit in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in India. Those Standardsrequire that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statementsare free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amountsand disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles usedand significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

3. As required by the Companies (Auditor’s Report) Order, 2003 as amended by the Companies (Auditor’s Report)(Amendment) Order, 2004 (the ‘Order’) issued by the Central Government of India in terms of sub-section (4A) ofSection 227 of the Companies Act, 1956 (the ‘Act’), we give in the Annexure a statement on the mattersspecified in paragraphs 4 and 5 of the said Order.

4. As stated in Note 9 in the Schedule XVIII of the financial statement, the Company has not appointed anyManaging director/ whole time Director or Manager which is a non compliance of Section 269 of the Act.

5. Further to our comments in the Annexure referred to above, we report that :

a. As more fully explained in the note 3.1 of Schedule XVIII to the financial statements, an amount of Rs. 360million, given as security deposit towards lease of a property, is carried as recoverable under the headLoans and advances. The Company is presently not in possession of the said property and has filed acriminal compliant against some of the erstwhile promoter directors and ex-employees of the Company forexecuting this transaction. The above deposit appears to be doubtful of recovery, for which no provision hasbeen made in the accounts.

b. As more fully explained in the note 3.3 of Schedule XVIII to the financial statements, the Company has notaccrued interest in respect of outstanding inter corporate deposits of Rs. 100 million which as at March 31,2007 amounts to Rs. 222.15 million.

c. As more fully explained in the note 3.5 and 3.7 of Schedule XVIII to the financial statements, Loans andadvances includes an amount of Rs. 36.11 million which represents net impact of unsupported deposits to,and withdrawals from, the bank accounts which were operated by some of the erstwhile Director (s) and/ orsome ex-employees of the Company. In the absence of supporting documents/ information, this amountappears to be doubtful for recovery for which no provision has been made in the financial statement.

d. As more fully explained in the note 3.6 of Schedule XVIII to the financial statements, balance in Sundrydebtors as at March 31, 2007 includes Rs. 5.90 million recoverable from parties in which the erstwhilepromoters are interested. The Company has not created any provision against this balance though therecovery of this amount appears to be doubtful considering the various pending litigations with erstwhilepromoters.

We further report that had the observations made by us in paragraphs 5 a, b, c and d above been considered, thenet loss for the period would have been Rs.1,331.59 million (as against the reported net loss of Rs.707.43million), accumulated losses would have been Rs. 4,363.60 million (as against the reported figure of Rs.3,739.44 million), loans and advances would have been Rs. 757.68 million (as against the reported figure of Rs.1,153.79 million), sundry debtors would have been Rs. 49.71 million (as against the reported figure of Rs. 55.61million) and current liabilities would have been Rs. 6,767.37 million (as against the reported figure of Rs. 6,545.22million).

23rd Annual Report 2006-200729

Page 32: Annual Report 2006-07

6. Further to our comments in the Annexure referred to above, we report that

a. We have obtained all the information and explanations, which to the best of our knowledge and beliefwere necessary for the purposes of our audit, except to the extent stated in paragraph 5(c) aboveregarding unsupported bank transactions;

b. In our opinion proper books of account as required by law have been kept by the Company so far asappears from our examination of those books;

c. The Balance Sheet, Profit and Loss Account and Cash Flow Statement dealt with by this report are inagreement with the books of account;

d. Subject to our comments in paragraph 5 above, in our opinion and to the best of our information andaccording to the explanations given to us, the financial statements, read together with the notesthereon, comply with the accounting standards referred to in sub-section (3C) of Section 211 of theAct, give the information required by the Act in the manner so required and give a true and fair view inconformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, in the case of:

i) the Balance Sheet, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2007;

ii) the Profit and Loss Account, of the loss for the 10 month period ended on that date; and

iii) the Cash Flow Statement, of the cash flows for the 10 month period ended on that date;

7. Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 8 in Schedule XVIII to the financial statementswhich indicates that the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations with net loss for the 10month period ended March 31, 2007, without considering the impact of the matters mentioned in paragraph5 above, amounting to Rs.707.43 million, and as of that date, the Company’s accumulated losses amountedto Rs. 3,739.44 million, as against the Company’s share capital and reserves of Rs.5,585.22 million. Also,as discussed in Note 3 in Schedule XVIII to the financial statements, realization of the carrying amount ofcertain receivable amounting to Rs. 402 million and dismissal of interest liability amounting to Rs. 222.15million is dependent on upon the success of the claims filed by the Company against some of the erstwhiledirectors and employees. These conditions raise significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continueas a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 8. Theaccompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome ofthese uncertainties and also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classificationof asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should theCompany be unable to continue as a going concern.

8. On the basis of written representations received from the directors as on March 31, 2007, and taken onrecord by the Board of Directors, we report that none of the directors is disqualified as on March 31, 2007from being appointed as a director in terms of clause (g) of sub-section (1) of Section 274 of the Act.

“It is clear that the convoluted transaction entered into by the Company with Agache Associates primafacie appears to be a stratagem devised to account for the allotment and call money payable for11,549,272 shares valued at Rs. 333,180,880 …”

“Accordingly as an interim measure, it is directed that the property described in detail in the leasedeed dated 11th September 1995 annexed to this application at annexure E and bearing No 15, RatanBabu Road, Cossipore, Calcutta shall remain attached and shall not be disposed off in any manner or

its possession parted with, without the leave of this Court. However, if the amount of Rs. 36 croregiven as security deposit by the company minus the rent upto date at Rs. 10,000/- per month isdeposited in this Court, the attachment is liable to be lifted forthwith …”

The Company had filed a criminal complaint in the court of Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, New Delhiagainst some of the erstwhile promoter directors and ex-employees of the Company for executing theabove transaction. The Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, New Delhi has issued summons to the erstwhilepromoter directors and ex-employees of the Company after completion of pre summoning evidence.

3.2. One of the Inter Corporate Deposit (“ICD”) lenders, M/s Hindustan Development Corporation Limited (“HDCL”)(now renamed as Mallanpur Steels Limited) who had lent Rs. 50.00 million to the Company, had apparentlysold the Securities pledged with it. The transfer of the Securities sold could not be registered in favour ofthe purchaser since the sale was on the basis of invalid / illegal share transfer documents. The purchaserchallenged this refusal before the Company Law Board (“CLB”) which upheld the Company’s stand. Thepurchaser had filed an appeal against CLB order, which is still pending.

3.3. In respect of ICDs aggregating Rs. 100 million, the Company has not accrued interest payable amountingto Rs. 222.15 million upto March 31,2007 (previous year 210.52 million), computed based on interest ratesas per original contract terms for reasons explained below:

� ICD of Rs. 50 million in the name of Agache Associates Limited (affiliated to SKM GROUP) being aparty to the fraudulent transactions (Refer Note 3.1 above).

� In a suit filed by one of the ICD lenders (petitioners), the Company had deposited a sum of Rs 50 millionwith the Bombay High Court and the Hon’ble Bombay High Court later allowed the petitioner to withdrawthe said amount, upon furnishing an undertaking that the petitioner will restitute the said sum or such partthereof, with 9% interest, to the Company, if and as directed by the Court at the time of the final decisionof the suit filed by the petitioner. Accordingly, pending finality of the matter, both the ICD and deposit withHigh Court have been disclosed under the unsecured loans and loans and advances respectively.

3.4. The company had in the earlier years obtained an Interest free advance of Rs.14.09 million (Previous yearRs.14.09 million) from a body corporate belonging to SKM GROUP. However, no claim has yet beenreceived against the same.

3.5. The Company has in its possession the bank-statement of ICICI Bank, New Delhi, which shows a depositof Rs. 34.29 million (Previous year Rs. 34.29 million) on account of refunds from the Income Tax Departmenton November 6, 2000 and July 2, 2001 and subsequent withdrawals (details of amounts appropriated notavailable with the Company) on various dates aggregating to Rs. 34.29 million against cheques/draftsissued to several parties, including group companies of SKM GROUP, by erstwhile Director(s) and/orsome ex-employees of the Company, which amounts to fraudulent preference under section 531 of theCompanies Act, 1956, which was brought to the notice of the Hon’ble Court vide CA 606 of 2003 in CA 797of 2000. The difference of Rs. 34.29 million between balance as per books (since no accounting entry hasbeen recorded for unauthorized withdrawals) and that confirmed by the bankers, is being carried asrecoverable under Loans and Advances and is pending appropriate adjustment on outcome of the ongoingcases and has not been provided for in the accounts.

3.6. In view of various matters pending in courts, dues of Rs. 5.90 million (previous year Rs. 5.90 million) recoverablefrom some of the entities, in which the SKM GROUP is interested, have been retained in the books.

3.7. The Company has in its possession the bank statement of Standard Chartered Grindlays Bank, Mumbai,which shows deposits of Rs. 14.20 million and withdrawals of Rs. 16.01 million through various transactionsmade during the period March 1999 to March 2002.

4. The Company does not have possession of share certificates in support of its investments of Rs. 12.50million in 1,250,000 Equity Shares of Rs. 10 each in Modi Hoover International Limited. Accordingly, theCompany has made provision against the same.

5. Till the year ended May 31, 2006, the Company had capitalised lease rentals and other expenses relating toaircraft prior to their start of operations under the head lease hold improvements. Considering that such expensesdo not result in any actual improvement to the aircraft, the management has decided to expense off such underrespective accounts head during the current period. Due to this change in accounting policy, reported loss forthe current period is higher by Rs. 80.78 million whereas fixed assets are lower by the same amount.

6. Till the year ended May 31, 2006, the Company recorded Free of cost (FOC) spares parts received alongwiththe aircraft, at their fair value under “Fixed assets”. Corresponding gain was credited to “Unearned incentive”,which was classified under Current Liabilities.

The share capital and reserve stood at Rs.5,585.22 million as on that date. The Board of Directors of the company are of the opinion that most of theaccumulated losses pertain to either the pre-operating period or due to initial start up and entry costs.

Page 52: Annual Report 2006-07

Registry did not accept the cheque for the second installment on the grounds that it was not supported with theHon’ble High Court of Delhi’s order to encash the same. The company since moved two applications to theHon’ble High Court of Delhi requesting that the cheque be allowed to be re-deposited with and encashed by theRegistry and obtained an order to this effect on April 20, 2007. However, as per directions issued by the Hon’bleHigh Court requiring all such payments to be made through either Demand Draft or Pay Order the Company wasobligated to cancel the cheque and replace the same with a Demand Draft for the same amount which wasaccepted by the Registry on May 25, 2007. As the cheque was valid as at March 31, 2007, and further that theliability in this regard was extinguished subsequent to year-end only due to administrative reasons the secondinstallment of the Scheme has been considered as disbursed for the purpose of these financial statements.

14. During the period ended March 31, 2007 the Company decided to write back some of the old outstandingcredit balances aggregating to Rs. 186.25 million. The Company has not received any claim in respect ofcredit balances included in these and these balances are time barred as per Limitation Act.
